We asked the team from Flight Centre to uncover those under-the-radar spots that will make this coming year your best travelled one yet.
SIARGAO, PHILIPPINES
The beautiful island of Siargao, ringed with truly spectacular coral reefs, is home to mangroves and a resident population of saltwater crocodiles. But the big draw here is the surf, which led Surfer magazine to list it among the “Ten Best Surf Trips of All Time”; for the ultimate in wave-riding cred, head to the famous Cloud Nine Reef, which plays host to Siargao’s annual international surfing cup competition. Rad!
COPENHAGEN, DENMARK
Branded the world’s “most liveable” city by Monocle magazine, Copenhagen really does have it all – stunning architecture, incredible dining, rich culture and bags of charm. It’s also clocked up an impressive number of Michelin-starred restaurants, and, with the likes of Noma leading the way, exciting contemporary cuisine teeming with Denmark’s finest ingredients should definitely be on the menu for any visit.
NAMIBIA, AFRICA
Beautiful Namibia is an ideal place to start to explore Africa. Stroll around the striking German colonial architecture in Windhoek, try four-by-four dune-bashing in the sweeping Namib Desert or elephant-spotting on Etosha National Park’s otherworldly salt pans, and go whale-watching on blustery Walvis Bay. From desert to dining, whatever your dream holiday looks like, you’ll find it in Namibia.
